Yellowcolored Birds Birds in the Yard
Male American Goldfinches (left) surely rank as some of the brightest birds in the yard, but they''re gold on in summer. Females even in summer (below left) are never gold, and wintertime goldfinches should probably be called "olive goldfinches." Male American Goldfinches look really splotchy in early fall (below) when they begin their fall molt into winter plumage.
